The Cosmopolitan Club, a foreign student center, in 1915 occupied the Tilden house (originally built for George G. and Lydia Tilden) at 905 Douglas Avenue. The house had been the home of Sigma Nu fraternity from 1904 through 1914. Extensively remodled by Galen (a son of George and Lydia) and Ina Tilden in 1918, the house went from the pictured Italianate style to one of Prairie style design. The residence today [2011] is still well-maintained.
